Hello Everyone,
I'm trying to figure out how to wire an 80A 12VDC solenoid for a Lippert RV leveling system. I'm switching to 24V and have the step down converter for everything else. However, that is only a 40A converter and I don't see how it can run an 80A with 2 Gauge wire. The fuse says 80A and 30VDC, but the solenoid says 12VDC. TYIA.
